What is a peaceful woman?- day 4 1/2- A step to the right

I had to add this additional blog today. This one is for Keith.

For me, during this day of living independently from certain thoughts and ideas that limit me, I was inspired to hear this womans story. This is TED talk about a woman who witnessed her brain functions deteriorate during her own stroke. To hear of her experience is so amazing and reminds me of our power to access peace. She is a woman. She chose life and she chose peace.

I watched my husbands brain shut down over a period of 18 months while he battled a rare form of brain cancer. His right hemisphere was compromised by a tumor the size of a lemon that was very aggressive. Three surgeries and two chemo treatments later, he passed into a state of peace. I learned so much from him during this time. Somehow these two stories have assembled together in front of me today to activate a purpose

We do have a choice. We can access both sides of our brain. We can connect to each other or we can chose to be separate. Through Jills story and my own life experience, I chose to continue to learn how to step to the right of my left hemisphere and experience peace. Please listen to it and enjoy. Have a box of Kleenex handy.
